Kitty looked to the other woman without surprise but disappointment. "Ya should. I'm sure he's gotta lot he could say that's nice about you. Yer family seems scared ta love one another and say good things. It might be why yer all stretched out so far apart." Maybe being married has been good for Uriel, he's been seeing more family, even if it hadn't ended well.
As she relaxed and watched over the yard before them, she let the comforting quiet and peace fill her. It was nice here, and she knew she was lucky. She had a good man, and a healthy son, and a beautiful little patch of heaven on earth that Uriel had built for her. "It is. It's more than I could have ever hoped for. I'll give ya a tour in just a little bit. Let you see all that makes this place special. It might not be your sort of thing, but everyone is allowed their personal tastes." She shrugged and sipped her lemonade.
Her fingers tapped at the arm of the chair , "Oh it is beautiful there. I am happy I got to see such wonders. And I hope you get to do the same. I hope I get to see the things here that are nice too." She gave her a warm, welcoming smile. "It might not compare, but this is home. It should be something special to make me wanna come back to it at the end of the day, right? A sort of simple comfort that means safety and peace. That's home ta me. I don't know what's home ta you, but ain't no worries if your heart still feels like wondering. I can relate. I traveled for years."
She took another long sip of lemonade. "I like ya Ruth, yer not like that brother of yours, Zechariah, or most of those at the wedding. So tell me.. what does the family think about me? I'm sure they've been whisperin all sorts of rumors or ideas." She looked to her for the truth before looking back at the nice scenery.
